Abstract

Composites of conducting polymers and chitosan (Ch) have indicated good properties as conducting and biocompatible material, for various applications However conducting polymers have limited biocompatibility whereas Ch has limited conductivity which has been a subject of intensive research in last decade This chapter summarizes the synthesis of conducting polymer/chitosan composites, properties of these materials and advances in application areas
